I fear I am not brave enough to roll with a beta release, so I will find out how cool it is later this year. I suppose I'll also be (at the same time) figuring out whether to get the expected new iPhone as well, so it's going to be all change I suspect!

@mak63: Yeah, I'm very curious to see how the Family sharing mode thing works. I read that developers of new apps will automatically allow their apps installed on up to 6 devices to allow this to work, and that existing app developers are being asked to opt in. Something like that.

I'm not entirely sure how this will really work, but if they're saying that I can finally have all 5 of my family members using unique Apple IDs, yet by sharing my credit card across those accounts I can buy an app once and make it available to all of them for free, then that would be a huge win for me. Make it happen with music too please. I'm bored of having to pay for apps and choons on my device, then my wife's, then the kids. And boy, it would be so much simpler than having to buy DRM-free music on my account then manually importing thos same files into their accounts, right?

So I guess off the back of WWDC I am saying thank you ;-) Not only will Airdrop work between iPhone and Mac at last, but they're making moves towards exactly what I asked for - tighter, seamless integration between their products. They've not taken me up on my GPS idea yet, but the other things they announced really do seem to shift in a direction that I think I'm going to really enjoy. Yay!

Steve Jobs sure was mad about Google supposedly stealing iOS from Apple to make Android. But I'd say that the two systems are keeping up with each other technologically and competitively. That makes for better products for us consumers, and I think that's great.

I used to be an iPhone user; now I am on Android. I still like the form factor of an iPhone though, so that's why I have a Moto X. With Android, you have many, many choices.

I don't know what swipe is - but I do know that I have a very hard time typing on my phone, and even have difficulty in selecting the right text when I am reading a book on my iPad to select. My fingers and eyes don't coordinate with IOS.

I've been begging for child/guest access to IOS devices for some time. The finger pad recognition needs to recognize more fingers - to allow my grandchildren to use their fingers.

SIRI on my Mac needs a text mode, come to think of it, SIRI on IOS does too. I'd like to text SIRI without saying anything out loud.

If Apple cannot deliver "one more thing" it will all be uninteresting. Apple used to be the innovation leader and now they are nothing else than yet another consumer electronics company that asks way too much for their unimpressive product.

As InformationWeek Government readers were busy firming up their fiscal year 2015 budgets, we asked them to rate more than 30 IT initiatives in terms of importance and current leadership focus. No surprise, among more than 30 options, security is No. 1. After that, things get less predictable.
